Any San Francisco rider with hubs willing to do testing?

I’d like to find someone who can test for a couple weeks the durability of these smaller wheels that are a high rebound and low duro and if they show well would get wheels made w the same pu. I’m not riding w power these days and pushing around isn’t going to get the needed miles in

Also Brad @RipTideSports made two tires that we’d also like to put through a lot of high power/heat testing.

If u have the motors and do a lot of miles, especially in a hot environment, would like to get them to u. I’m motorless till the next batch come in

Are these with your hubs, or any run of the mill China hubs?

The white tires are our unmodified APS urethane in 78a. If results are good with these we will try some heat resistant versions and use the white as a data point to judge from.

I could put them to the test if they fit on Ownboard hubs. I have even ridden them on gravel roads. I can stress test them. Not for heat in this season, though.

They go on the hubs I sell. I’ll write people who have these motors through my mail list.

If u have the hubs n ride much I can send them to you or can just give u these other two wheels to put lots of miles on and see if they are any good.

the sun is why my dad moved from Ireland to usa.

planning to get the tires made by aend or maybe labeda and waiting for that to happen and maybe depending on how long they take we could find Brad’s are good. that would be fantastic because then I wouldn’t have to spend a lot of money on 50 aluminum molds and I think 500 tire minimum order. the reason for the kickstarter.

@Chase how many miles do you do a week because id like to maybe get some other 61x45mm wheels or there about, and just run one of those and one of these. ill be looking.
and get this wheel and core made. its 50mm long and I think kegal is 35. and wider. bigger holes in wider diameter circle. same amount of material between holes. could make it thicker. and its a bit off center set go with the motors and paris trucks. 84x86
